Hello @stephtyrrellmyleftknee2021, Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect, a welcoming online community where patients and caregivers share their experiences, find support and exchange information with others. Thanks for sharing your experience with the Mako robotic arm-assisted knee replacement procedure. I really wanted that but my Mayo surgeon doesn't use it. I am quite happy though, as he is very good at what he does and my recovery and rehab went well.

Do you mind sharing a little more about your experience after the surgery, are you still doing home rehab, how's your range of motion, etc.?

My surgery was Tues. March 23. That next Fri and sat I went to PT, followed by 3x per week since. I went from Walker to cane in a week. Used the cane foe 1-2 weeks. Today my bend is 117 degrees and I'm almost straight, less than 5 degrees. My scar looks great. I had little swelling.
